seeking cicada
that drills my brain,
I find only a shell.

Asian Weaver Ant [Lyric Poem]
There once was a wee Asian Weaver Ant
Who lived on a big banana tree plant.
When they cut down his tree, a problem arose,
Moving to a rubber tree would be too on-the-nose.

Brisk Morn [Haiku]
brisk morn dragonfly:
too cold to move, or dead?
unmoved by footfall.

Wasp [Lyric Poem]
I look straight upward and I see
A wasp nest hanging over me:
By a mere twig it's dangling,
And this, my nerves, is jangling.

Bee [Lyric Poem]
I see the humble bumble bee,
Or should I say I see its rump.
It snugged in, made itself cozy --
To get away it's far too plump.

Sound & Silence [Haiku]
insects chirp
under autumn skies; the
river runs silent.
